External flash. No film will register light that is not there. The hue you
describe is a shortage of reds. The only way to alter this is for you to put
red light there when you take the pic - flash. The internal flash is
generally too weak to do this, and in any case is mounted too close to the
axis of the lens.

Sealife do a dedicated set of guns for this camera, which may be useable
with other Sealife or other brands of camera shouod you decide to ditch film
in favour of digital at some point.
